Devils owner Jeff Vanderbeek writes note to Devils fans after Saturday's win thanking them for braving the weather


Vanderbeek
Dear Devils Fans —

Saturday was all about the best New Jersey has to offer.  Some snow?  No big deal.  It meant building a snowman, sledding and hockey.  And when it came to hockey, you showed up in huge numbers to see a great effort by Jersey’s Team at the Rock.

The game was sold out in advance and we had fewer than 700 no shows.  It’s a testament to the hard work by NJTransit, NJDOT, Essex County and Newark, along with all the other towns in northern New Jersey to make sure the roads and rails were so easy to use.  And, of course, it speaks to your dedication as Devils fans. 

With your help we have sold out 17 of the last 18 homes games.  What’s more, because of your loud, passionate support as a member of the Devils Army, Prudential Center is now earning a reputation as a tough place to play.  So thank you for being the best fans in the NHL and for having that Jersey attitude to not let a little snow stop you from coming to root for the Devils.

On behalf of the entire Devils organization, we appreciate it!

Best,

Jeff Vanderbeek
Chairman
